Contact

  • You will find links to the main sites related to the Ubuntu Connecticut Team located at the top of this Wiki page. If you have any questions, comments or rude remarks (just joking.. keep the rude ones to yourself) then you can either post in the forum or contact Drew.

Activity Ideas

  • The group is still fledgling, but it appears some members of the Team will be meeting face-to-face in the future and a number of us have voiced the desire of having a large Team-wide meeting sometime soon. Some other quick ideas include
  • Demonstration at a computer club
  • Adult Education Classes (and pass out free, professional looking Ubuntu CDs!)
  • Participating in a computer club's meetings (even non-Linux groups as an informational talk)

  • Demonstrating to a school, nursery, preschool, etc. the benefits of Edubuntu

  • Install-fests
  • Hand out CDs at trade shows and flea markets
  • Blogging

Membership

  • You can become a member by joining launchpad, joining the Google Group, joining us in IRC (#ubuntu-connecticut) chat meetings, joinging our mailing list or by posting in our forum. The Launchpad membership also allows you to edit the Wiki pages, which is helpful in listing and joining projects as well as other Wiki pages to be developed. Introduce yourself, and where you are in Connecticut, or any other connection (went to school here, grew up here, have friends/family here, etc.). While the focus on the Team is on Connecticut, we reach out further than just our borders.
